Dihydro Terpinyl Acetate Production from terpinyl acetate via hydrogenation

This report entails a detailed cost evaluation of Dihydro Terpinyl Acetate production from terpinyl acetate via hydrogenation. The manufacturing process involves placing the terpinyl acetate and a hydrogenation catalyst into a hydrogenation reactor, followed by stirring. The air inside the hydrogenation reactor is replaced with nitrogen three times, and again by replacing the nitrogen with hydrogen three times. Once the replacement is completed, a standard pressure is maintained at 2.5 to 3.5 Mpa with hydrogen. After the pressure in the hydrogenation reactor does not change, the materials in the hydrogenation reactor are cooled to room temperature, hydrogen is replaced with nitrogen three times, followed by standing and layering, extruding the product out with nitrogen, secondary standing, and precipitation. Finally, filtration is done to produce Dihydro Terpinyl Acetate.
